I've been doing well getting out when I can, etc. Had a tremendous ride Monday evening and just could not wait to get back out. Then I took my bike to the LBS for a long overdue tuneup. It won't be done until Friday or Saturday. Dang. I'm going to have to walk/trot/fight bears until then. It's also going to hurt my 100 mile/month goal.
